http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6943887.stm3 Dead in a Church shooting in Missouri. Lord have mercy on their souls, and on the gunman. They may not have been Orthodox, but shooting any Christian while praying is despicable.

Truly shooting anyone while praying is sad in a nation of religious freedom.
